Buffy Sainte Marie - "Moonshot"

[alfredpeter1]

so creative:"call me up without no telephone" smoke signals+

[homelesssavage]

she looks like a sweet potato here, but still love her songs.

[YourFriendOfMusic]

Still going very, very strong, she is!

Oh Buffy! Way back when, then, I thought I was the only one who heard you. Now, some 40 yrs later some people are finally, finally hearing the nuances of the message your have been put on the planet to deliver. What took them soooo long? Perhaps it's not too late. Or is it?

[savvy428]

@AtomikHypnosis It is never too late. Grace never ceases to touch lives. When the truth is heard, it inspires and transforms souls, that is, if people are honestly seeking the truth, than they will find it and they will never be the same again.

this song is a cult classic played on juke boxes in the gay bars in n.y and boston

She is so beautiful to me on this photo like her music and her Solul!Love you and thanks for posting.

[minytaina]

 Yes they all connect like a network with each other like in the movie of Avatar and without a telephone!

@namesameasu In the early '70s she was still being suppressed by the U.S. gov't, and as she put it, "My career took a nosedive." At the time she assumed that tastes had simply changed, but she learned years later that other things were going on. . Some of my favorite songs by her are from the early '70s.

one of our worlds blessed beings here to help us

Galaxie 500 used to do this before Dean & Britta. Their version is interesting as well, but Buffy's is wonderful.

[continentalvictory]

She is an underappreciated genius. This is exquisite & her latest release is incredible... check out her video for "No No Keshagesh" here on youtube

Buffy, you are my hero!!

[sileascatriona]

D & B's version nice, more post-modern (?), but Buffy's original feels so purely from the heart and is truly exquisite

[RockThisCrib]

Dean And Britta did a recent cover of this song which is stunning as well. It really works as a duet. Check it out!

[Gymbobwe]

I have this on a very old 45

[harhom]

I'll be turning 53 this summer, been around the block when it comes to music :  this song is a gem (just as she is).

[hanniballecturer]

sounds like this was inspired by Hey Jude

[sexyangel35]

Thank You For Posting Buffy Sainte-Marie songs, It is so wonderful see her here!!!

I absolutley Love this song, its is so beautiful!

[miaaisha]

woohoo she's giving a concert at a natives festival near my city this summer! :)) I have loved her forever and never believed I would see her perform live. Moonshot is my favourite song thanks for posting it <3

[hoksila1980]

@miaaisha, This is definitely one of my favourites too. Simple, understated, and devastatingly beautiful. Listen to Bufffy's inimitable vibrato in this song, so laden with feeling. I think I'll get them to play this for me when I've breathed my last breath!

[garyinthedesert]

Thanks for posting this. It's one of my favorite Buffy songs. I wish she would record more new material. We get a new album once every 10 years. Her OSCAR winning song "Up Where We Belong" by Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes (From AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN) will pay her royalties forever. Buffy come back.

I've always loved this song. Thanks for the post. My brother had this albulm when I was young, yes I'm WAY older than you but Buffy resonates with so many generations.5+

I never heard this song befor.I can see why you gave it 5 stars.I love it!

[bluemonkjd]

the dean and britta cover of this didn't change the instrumentation too much, but I still kinda prefer it laconically sung to buffy's tremolo-packed tone. great song, though. thanks for posting.

[followfollow162]

i agree. this is a lovely song no matter who's singin', but the d&b version is my favorite.
